Content Management Systems

Your content management system is the back office of your website – whether that’s a large eCommerce store or a bespoke brochure site. Fat Media’s award-winning website developers use WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors – which means you can easily make changes to your site without needing any coding or technical knowledge.

Examples of amends you can make include:

Updating page content
Changing or adding photos and images
Uploading documents for visitors to download
Choose bespoke calls to action for each page

If you have an eCommerce site, you’ll be able to make all of the above changes, plus amend, add or remove product listings, all while retaining your core content management and shop administration functions.

Our digital marketing agency is proud to have experts in a number of open source content management systems, as well as fluency in several coding languages including .NET and PHP. This means we have the ability to customise off-the-shelf systems, and create our own bespoke modules to give you exactly the functionality you need.

When it comes to choosing the right CMS for you, our advisors are here to help. Here’s a quick guide to our four main platforms:

Umbraco

For a premium brochure website, the Umbraco CMS is our recommended option. Another open source platform with complete flexibility, for our in-house .NET developers the sky is the limit with Umbraco. Along with a website that looks beautiful and can cope with complex functionality, you’ll have an easy-to-use system to make maintaining it a breeze.

Magento

The leading eCommerce platform in the world, Magento is the content management system behind the likes of Kurt Geiger, Jack Daniels and Renault to name a few. But, that doesn’t mean it’s only appropriate for multi-national brands. What it does mean is that it grows with your business, with hundreds of extensions to help you sell more online.

Kentico

Our most advanced solution is Kentico - an enterprise-level platform capable to handling high traffic volumes and complex system integrations. It also comes with a host of in-built marketing and CRO solutions, such as content personalisation, A/B testing and marketing automation. Kentico also has a great ecommerce solution and can be a great fit if Magento doesn't meet your requirements.

Drupal

Another fantastic open source content management system, Drupal offers a great solution for organisations looking to have numerous third party integrations with their site, for example CRM or inventory management systems. It also scales easily, meaning your site will grow with you and your business rather than requiring a whole new upgrade to keep up with you!

WordPress

A great choice for website design projects on a smaller budget, WordPress claims to be powering 26% of the web – so it’s certainly a popular CMS! Our WordPress developers are able to take advantage of the thousands of plugins and widgets being created in the WordPress community and create their own if needed.

This is such a simple content management system to use, so you will have no trouble updating content and making changes yourself once your site goes live.

Whichever content management system you choose to implement, we will give your team full training on how to use it. Your Account Manager is also on hand at any point in the future to help with queries.

Services

We have consistently enjoyed working with every member of the Fat Media team. They're a top-class digital agency, and quickly grasped the technical aspects of our industry with their work on our social media channels. They have always provided exactly what we needed. We would recommend them to anyone.
Daniel Lightfoot, Business Manager UK & Ireland Syngenta UK
At The Daffodil Hotel & Spa we have a strong brand direction and we knew what we wanted from our site with Fat Media. Working with the team to design such an impressive, CTA focused site has been a great experience.
Laura Wolstenholme, Head of Sales & Marketing, Daffodil Hotel & Spa
I’ve been delighted with Fat Media’s web development skills and their flexibility in meeting our requirements. With their help we updated our website presentation layer, added responsive mobile, added a new Content Management System, changed our Airport Property management System and migrated across to a new hosting environment. All without any major hitches.
Fergus Boyd, IT Director, Yotel
We had the pleasure of working with the team at Fat Media in the development of our new recruitment website. They made the whole project very easy for us and nothing was too much trouble. We were on time and on-budget but most importantly they delivered a really creative solution in keeping with our brand - we were thrilled with the results. We have a clean contemporary recruitment website which makes learning more about life at Lakeland very accessible to applicants.
Suzanne Allen, People & Business Support Manager, Lakeland
Working with Fat Media has been a pleasure from start to finish – their enthusiasm for creating a brilliant new website starts in the initial briefing and runs throughout the project. They are always on hand to provide guidance and provide solutions quickly. They have a friendly yet professional approach and deliver to expectations and time scales. Looking forward to working with them on the next project!
Emily McCoid, Marketing Manager, Bells of Lazonby
The Digital Advertising team at Fat Media did a highly professional and intuitive job from start to finish, and are a pleasure to work with. They took the time to understand what we wanted to achieve, develop detailed analysis which was then evolved based on the data emerging throughout our campaign, and, by them continuously optimising the mix of channels, formats and styles, the results far surpassed our expectations – so much so that we have already set a higher budget for our next campaign.
Iain Corby, Director of Operations & Development, Gamble Aware
Having worked with Fat Media on various projects over the last 18 months, I have been delighted with not just the quality of the finished work but also the innovative and creative approach taken in response to any brief. They have really helped us to bring the Lancaster University brand to life.
Clare Riding, Head of Marketing, Lancaster University
Fat Media have done excellent work designing and building our new retail website in Magento. Throughout the process all of their staff have proven to be helpful, informed and proactive. A great experience all round!
David Lindsay, IT Manager, Royal Mile Whiskies
We've worked with Fat Media for many years now and have always found that they'll go above and beyond to accommodate our requests. As our teams have grown together we've developed a strong working relationship based on a great deal of trust and the team have gone to great lengths to understand the market in which we operate to find ways that they can best meet our needs.
Annabel Arrowsmith, Marketing Manager, Foresight
We appointed Fat Media to work with us on the rebranding and positioning of Atlantic Geomatics, as well as to develop for us a website that would support business growth as one of the leading Geospatial Companies in the North of England and Scotland.

The quality of work delivered by Fat Media across all aspects of our brief, has provided Atlantic Geomatics with the confidence and support needed to help us grow as a business and meet our marketing and commercial objectives.

We look forward to continuing to work with Fat Media as our marketing partner.
Oliver Viney, Business Manager, Atlantic Geomatics
We worked very closely with Fat Media to make sure all key elements of the site were quickly accessible and found the perfect balance between design elements and user experience.
Gareth O'Rourke, E-marketing Manager, Pure Leisure
It was as pleasure to work with Fat Media on developing our new website this year. They were proactive, creative and very practical with their proposals and working approach to meet our needs. We also launched on time – no mean feat with a school website, where approvals are often down to a number of people. They also created our new whole school Prospectus which perfectly complements the website and has given us a fresher, more contemporary feel for all our materials. They remain supportive and helpful and I know that I can always call them up for advice or help.
Alison Miles, Marketing Manager, Sydenham High School
We wanted a professional and affordable option to promote and produce a unique patient story here at the Spire Bristol Hospital. The staff at Fat Media managed to compile a fantastic article in what was a relatively short deadline. We would like to thank them all for the personal service which was provided throughout
